In short, you are confusing Ijma of scholars with Ijma of Ummah as ijma of Ummah is only on Qur’an and those Sunnah practices on which no sect of Muslims disagree.

Well, the Ijma’ of Ummah upon the Khilafat of Abu Bakr, 'Umar, ‘Uthman radhiyAllahu ‘anhum etc,
the Ijma’ of Ummah regarding Qitaal of rejectors of Zakaat etc in the Khilafat of Abu Bakr r.a
are also not mentioned in Quran and Sunnah.
There is an Ijma’ of Ummah with continuity concerning killing of Apostates, only Kafirs in the guise of Islam deny that.
By the way this is in Sunnah too.

Secondly, perpetual adherence of a practice from Prophet’s time is a more stronger proof of a Sunnah than Ijma of Ummah, as today Ummah can have a ijma of Eid Milad-un-Nabi, but actually it is not Sunnah at all because it cannot be proved through perpetual adherence from Prophet.

It shows your lack of knowledge and information, as there is no Ijma’ of Ummah on the so called Eid Miladun Nabi.

I’ve written so many times and have given so many examples that Ghamidi doesn’t reject hadith unless it really goes against Qur’an. He also never rejected the hadith of apostasy. One should read the article of Ghamidi here. He believes that when Prophet Muhammad’s addressees were punished, as addressees of all Messengers are punished, they were given a chance to convert to Islam or face death. At that point, Prophet gave this directive. After the prophet and his companions, no one can exercise this command. And Qur’an states very clearly that Sahaba were standing at the status of Shahadah, hence they fought just like God chose prophets in history to fight in the way of God to spread religion.

Here is a contradiction in your position:
First you say only Prophet Muhammad sallAllahu 'alayhe wasallam could do Qitaal of Apostates and then you said Sahabah also had the right to do so. Well show me the verse which supports your opinion.
Secondly the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w is a witness upon us and we are the witness upon the rest of Humans till the day of judgment. Someone’s rejecting Prophethood of Muhammad s.a.w is not something as his personal issue, instead that is a general issue of rejecting Allah because it is the Messenger who conveys His Message to the humans. Therefore after the Prophet Muhammad sallAllahu 'alayhe wasallam, if someone turns to an Apostate he will be rejecting the Prophethood of Muhammad sallAllahu 'alayhe wasallam and his crime will be the same as would be in the life of Muhammad sallAllahu 'alayhe wasallam, the crime of Zina in the life of Muhammad s.a.w is the same today with same punishment likewise, and so an Apostate will be killed for the same reason.

My only request is that please read Ghamidi’s articles first before criticizing. This is also why I say that there hasn’t been a scholarly criticisizm on Ghamidi.

If something is against your Agha Ghamidi then it is not scholarly, that’s obvious, I have Alhamdu Lillah started reading his views from today so you should now be cheer up.
